Of particular interest is work that crosses the boundaries between the two disciplines - a distinct aspect of the history of cultural practice in this region. A majority of Artspeak's exhibitions involve emerging and mid-career Vancouver artists presenting new work. We support the practices of emerging and established artists and writers from this region and beyond by providing opportunities to exhibit, publish, and present new work to audiences that are increasingly receptive to contemporary art and ideas. Artspeak actively contributes to the cultural community through our commitment to artists producing challenging, innovative work in diverse media, our affiliation with like-minded groups and organizations, and the public interest we generate in contemporary art. Within our programs, Artspeak supports practices that address the complex cultural context of Vancouver.<br>In 1999, Artspeak purchased a storefront strata-titled space in a renovated heritage building, The Bodega Studios, in the Gastown area of Vancouver. Our proximity to and co-operation with other cultural organizations such as artist-run centres, university and college art programs, public galleries and literary groups ensure that our programs are well-attended and our unique contribution to the cultural community is recognized.<br>The gallery area accommodates eight exhibitions per year, as well as events and activities that broaden and extend our interdisciplinary mandate, presented to the public free of charge.

Buildings date back to the 1860s are interspersed with buildings from later time periods.  The continuity of building design and the reproduction of 20 buildings has led to a consistancy in appears of all of the structures.  The thematic appoach is one of the interpretation of British Columbia history through Barkerville's history and covers the time between the first gold rush in 1858 up until the Province took over the town in 1958, featuring mining as the core industry.<br><br>Barkerville grew up around a large gold strike on Williams Creek in 1862 and continued as a supply town to the local mines up until the Province took over the site and developed a presentation program in 1958.  So, the town never did become a ghost town, but because of its authentic nature, it is often referred to as such.<br><br>Features include the Theatre Royal which has a new musical comedy each year to enliven the presentation at the site.  An operating water wheel graphically illustrates the tools of the mining trade.  A blacksmith demonstrates his work.  The Lee Chong Co.

We consider our boundaries to encompass the areas east to Cranbrook, south to the International border,  north to Revelstoke, and west to the Okanagan.<br><br>The Chamber of Mines was born in 1925 out of the old Prospectors Protective Association.   The P.P.A. was organized in 1921 as a vehicle whereby prospectors, often uneducated and unsophisticated, (in those days), could protect themselves from the unscrupulous mining promoters of the time.  The function of the P.P.A. was to look after the interests of prospectors, to act as a lobby for government legislation affecting them, to advise on the best handling of their properties and to help get capital to develop those properties.<br><br>Formation of the Chamber of Mines in 1925 represented both growth in, and the &quot;growing up&quot; of, the industry as distrust of the promoters faded, and the Chamber took on the additional responsibilities of looking after the interests of mining and allied industries as well.<br><br>The Chamber of Mines today continues in its role of prospectors advocate, maintaining close links with the prospecting fraternity and with exploration and mining companies.  We provide a forum for information exchange and education about our industry and a link between prospectors, government, industry and the general public.<br><br>We function as a resource/research facility for industry.  We are a source of information about mining in our area, and maintain an extensive library of reference materials dating from 1876.  We have a complete set of  Annual reports of the B.C. Dept of Mines, reports of the Geological Survey of Canada, numerous miscellaneous volumes pertaining to the mineral industry, geological, magnetic geochemical, and topographic maps, have Micro Fiche assessment reports, as well as an extensive mineral collection, mainly of samples representing southeastern B.C.  Our collection has been referred to as one of the best in the world in functions at which they were exhibited.<br><br>The Chamber educates school classes on an ongoing basis, beginning with elementary and going up to high school level.  We have videos, books, and qualified personnel to teach this age group.  We also run &quot;Prospecting courses&quot; for adults, (beginners and intermediate).  Other course we run on a regular basis are &quot;Gemstones of the  World&quot;, and &quot;Gold Panning Courses&quot;.  We  also hosted the first Industrial Mineral Course in B.C., as well as Petrology Courses.  <br><br>The Chamber publishes a monthly newsletter, keeping members informed as to what is happening in  all parts of B.C.  We run a small classified section to advertise goods and services available by our members .  The chamber is run by a manager under the supervision of a board of elected directors.",

During her life she developed a unique artistic style, inspired by the west coast landscape and the First Nations art and culture. Her childhood home has been restored by the B.C. Heritage Branch and is furnished as it might have been when Emily was a girl. Carr House is noted for its People's Gallery which alternatively exhibits original works of art by Emily Carr and contemporary Canadian artists.Interactive, hands-on programming,school tours focussing on Emily Carr, musical events, poetry readings, and other cultural events are the highlights of Carr House's programming.

In 1974, the Museum was chosen as one of four facilities in British Columbia to become a National Exhibition Centre, and its first professional staff person was employed. The Museum has 3,500 square feet of exhibit space which includes both permanent galleries and space featuring travelling exhibits. Over 30,000 visitors a year come to the Museum and the school programmes reach about 9,000 students annually. The Museum houses about 10,000 artifacts, an extensive non-governmental archival collection and two art collections of provincial and national significance.",

			"description" : "Maison Mackin House, Coquitlam's Heritage, Doll and Toy Museum is located in Maillardville, Coquitlam, once considered the largest Francophone settlement west of the Rockies. The house was built around 1909 for the Sales Managers of Fraser Mills and its first inhabitant was Henry Mackin and his family. It stood opposite the Mill managers residence which is now present day Place des Arts. The Museum explores the beginnings, growth, and relationship of that growth to Fraser Mills, the Francophone workers and the influences of the time which led to Coquitlam. We house a historians delight in the Par?? room, created by the Grandson of Coquitlam's first combined Police and Fire Chief, Emeri Par??, with photographs and books emphasizing the families, pioneers and life of the period and hundreds of photos of Fraser Mills from late 1800's to its closure in 2001. The upper portion of the Museum consists of lovingly restored rooms and beautiful furnishings. These reflect a manager's house between 1910-20. On the upper levels we have the only known toy museum in the lower mainland, which contains toys from the late 1800's to approx 1960. Many classic tin toys and items, which shaped the thoughts of youngsters, are available for viewing in this room. We invite the public to browse through our recently created girl's bedroom circa 1910. A one of a kind dollhouse (The Dower House) measuring almost 6 feet long, which took almost 8 years to build occupies a small room upstairs. We also have a master bedroom and grandma's bedroom upstairs, both of which contain period furniture and items that reflect the period.",

Bricks in the chimneys and fireplaces, made with clay mined in nearby Sumas Mountain and processed at Clayburn Village, are reminders of one of B.C.'s first company towns.

Imagine the sumptuous dinners and other festivities that took place in the Dining Room. Envision cooking a meal in the kitchen, using the gleaming wood stove. Climb the main staircase, with its polished banister shipped from Scotland. See the spacious bedrooms and 'pedestal sink' bathroom. Step back in time, in a home described by the local newspaper when it was built in 1865 as '...the handsomest, the best and most home-like house of which British Columbia can yet boast.' Relive history - at Irving House.<br><br>The New Westminster Museum and Archives located directly behind Irving House, brings alive the history of Western Canada's oldest city. See items brought by the Royal Engineers, who founded New Westminster in 1859... Learn about New Westminster's historic May Day celebration, the oldest continuing event of its type in the British Commonwealth, and still held each May. Imagine a ride through the Fraser Canyon in 1876 with Governor General Lord Dufferin and Lady Dufferin, in their gleaming red horse drawn Coach. <br><br>The New Westminster Archives is located in the Museum building, and features historical photographs, files of information on local people, buildings and events, cemetery records, newspaper clippings and much more, some of the material is accessible through a variety of indexes and finding aids.<br><br>The New Westminster Museum & Archives will relocate at the end of 2013 to the new multi use Civic Facility.

With a collection of more than seven million unique objects and documents, there's something incredible to see every time you visit.<br><br>British Columbia has been shaped by movements of earth, ice and water. The Natural History Gallery will take you on a journey across time and through dramatically changing environments: time-travel from lush tropical forests to ice-bound tundra and emerge in the present where you can hike through the rainforest and to a spectacular rocky oceanside. Also in the gallery: <br><br>Climate Change - An exploration of changing climate and weather patterns and how they have affected - and will continue to affect - our province. <br><br>Ocean Station - An interactive exploration of the undersea world off the BC coast, housed in a 19th century 'submarine.' <br><br>In the First Peoples Gallery, get a dramatic glimpse of First Nations cultures before and after the arrival of Europeans. You are even privileged to enter the house of Jonathan Hunt - a Kwakwaka'wakw chief from Fort Rupert.<br><br>Then discover the Modern History Gallery: explore the replica stern section of Captain Vancouver's boat, take a stroll down the streets of Old Town or watch a movie in the theatre. The sights, sounds and smells of the past can be so vivid that you might - just for a moment - think you're really there.<br><br>** Photography is permitted in the permanent galleries only.<br>",

With their origins in Lachine, Quebec, the Sisters of St. Ann developed St. Ann's in a French architectural style.

Like many rural French Canadian churches, it has ornate altars and ceiling carvings, gold-leaf detailing, original oil paintings, stained glass windows, and a 1913 Casavant pipe organ. The resplendent Novitiate Garden has a geometric herb bed, perennials, and a recreated 1925 summerhouse. The 1910 formal garden contains rare trees and a unique non-operating fountain.",

The Gallery's constitution and bylaws, exhibition, acquisition and collection policies were redone in 1989. In September of 1990, the Topham Brown Public Art Gallery Society officially changed its name to the Vernon Public Art Gallery Society to more closely reflect the Gallery's ties to the North Okanagan and to better identify itself both within the community and beyond. In October 1990, the Gallery officially opened its doors in a temporary location on 30th Street in the BC Access building. <br><br>In 1995, our 50th Anniversary year, the Vernon Art Gallery opened its new 5,000 square foot facility.
